I'm going it alone Did my time and now I'm done It's so easy All the faces that I see don't mean anything at all to me But you got me going now out of my mind And it's all a hell of a time I don't wanna say what I don't mean But I'm trying just to let you know That I don't wanna cause a scene But I'm sorry girl it's time for you to go I'll tell you everything that you know you never wanna hear Cause it's true I'd give you all I got but there's nothing there that you could use But you got me going now out of my mind And it's all a hell of a time with you know I don't wanna say what I don't mean But I'm trying just to let you know That I don't wanna cause a scene But I'm sorry girl it's time for you to go I don't wanna say what I don't mean But I'm trying just to let you know That I don't wanna cause a scene But I'm sorry girl it's time for you to go I'll tell you anything that you know you never wanna hear Cause it's true I'd give you all I got but I'm the only thing you use So you got me going now I don't wanna say what I don't mean But I'm trying just to let you know That I don't wanna cause a scene But I'm sorry girl it's time for you to go I don't wanna say what I don't mean But I'm trying just to let you know That I don't wanna cause a scene But I'm sorry girl it's time for you to go

I tippy-toe across your dream each night So as not to wake you Asleep in your summer A garland of flowers Yellow and white around your waist While I walk these paths of ice Ice my breast And strings of ice my hair My hands two hooks of steel Ice nose, snow eyes Frozen open mouth Flakes of snow your bridal veils I come down the soft white path Bouquets of poppies Spilling from my heart

My belly is a-cravin', I got a shakin' in my head, I feel like I'm dying, and I wish I was dead. If I live 'til tomorrow, that'll be a long time, But I'll real and I'll fall and I'll rise on cod'ine, And it's reel, and it's real, one more time. Well, when I was a young girl, I learned not to care Off whiskey, and frlick I often did swear. My mother and father said, Whiskey's a curse. But the fate of their baby was many times worse, And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time. Stay away from the cities; stay away from the town, Stay away from the man pushin' codeine around, Stay away from the stores where the remedy is fine, For better your pain than be caught on cod'ine, And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time. You'll forget you're a woman, you'll forget about men, Try it just once, and you'll try it again. You'll forget about life, you'll forget about time, And you'll live off your days as a slave to cod'ine, And it's reel, and it's reel, one more time. But, if I die tomorrow, still one thing I've done, I've heeded the warning that I got when I was young. My one satisfaction, it comes when I think That I'm livin' my life without bendin' to drink, And it's real, and it's real, one more time. And my belly is a-cravin'; I got a shakin' in my head, I feel like I'm dying, and I wish I was dead. If I live 'til tomorrow, that'll be a long time, But I'll reel and I'll fall and I'll die on cod'ine, And it's real, and it's real, one more time.

I tell you a story, it's a true one And I'll tell it like you'll understand And ain't gonna talk like some history man I look out and I see a land Young and lovely, hard and strong For fifty thousand years We've danced her praises Prayed our thanks and we've just begun This is, this is my country Young and growin' free and flowin' sea to sea Yes this is my country Ripe and bearing miracles in ev'ry pond and tree Her spirit walks the high country Givin' free wild samples And settin' an example how to give Yes, this is my country Retchin' and turnin', she's like a baby learnin' how to live I can stand upon a hill at dawn Look all around me, feel her surround me Soldier blue, can't you see her life has just begun? It's beating inside us Telling us she's here to guide us Ooh, soldier blue, soldier blue Can't you see that there's another way to love her? Ooh Yes, this is my country And I sprang from her and I'm learnin' how to count upon her Tall trees and the corn is high country Yes, I love her and I'm learnin' how to take care of her Whenever the news stories get me down I take a drink of freedom to think of North America from toe to crown It's never long before I know just why I belong here Ooh, soldier blue, soldier blue Can't you see that there's another way to love her? Soldier blue, soldier blue Can't you see that there's another way to love her? Soldier blue, soldier blue Can't you see that there's another way to love her?

Mi tabla, el mar, y yo Mi piel se moja com el sol Si en una ola yo voy Un mundo neuve encontrare Soy mas libre que un ave Me siento parte del mar Toda mi vida Un parti (?) estare Yo soy el mar Junta arena estoy yo Mi guitarra canta para el Las olas quieren jugar Y you las quiero besar You, your surfboard, and the sea The three of you all drenched in sun My guitar plays as you paddle out You're freeer than a bird, my love And all my life I'll stay beside you
